How did Young Dolph build his net worth?
Young Doph's net worth was built from sales of his rap music and production. He was worth an estimated $4 million at the time of his passing in 2021.
During the early days of his career, he worked on several collaborations with rap superstar Gucci Mane. On the back of that, he became very well-known in the hip-hop community.
His 2008 debut mixtape, "Paper Route Campaign," was his first commercial success. This was followed by "Dolphworld," his first non-studio album.
Young Dolph founded the record label Paper Route Empire and released several recordings such as "16," "Shittin On The Industry," "16 Zips," "High Class Street Music," "Cross Country Trappin," "South Memphis Kingpin," and "Blue Magic." The hit single "Cut It" reached #35 on Billboard and was a collaboration with O.T. Genasis.
In 2016, his first studio album, "King of Memphis," reached No.5 on the US Rap chart. It charted at No. 9 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop chart and was No. 49 on the Billboard 200 chart. He had further success with his 2017 album "Bulletproof," reaching No. 14 on the US Rap chart, No. 19 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop chart, and No. 36 on the Billboard 200 chart.
Industry heavies such as Wiz Khalifa, Lil Yachty, and Migos collaborated on his album "Gelato," which dropped in 2017 and was his biggest commercial success.
However, Young Dolph's "Rich Slave," released in 2020, debuted at No. 4 on Billboard 200 and was his highest-charting project.
How has Young Dolph spent his wealth?
Young Dolph donated $25,000 to Hamilton High School to pay his respects to the institution where he was educated.

Among the items stolen were a $230,000 Richard Mille wristwatch, a $700 Louis Vuitton wallet, an $85,000 Patek Philippe watch, an Apple iPad, MacBook, and AirPods with a combined value of $3,700, Cartier sunglasses valued at $24,700, and two diamond chains worth $84,000.
